> I use the same entries in my router.db as on my old machine, but on the old system I don't get any errors in my logfile. For the "parentheses" error I found this thread (http://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2010-June/004987.html), but my hlogin already contains the mentioned line.

Would you tell me the version of expect that you have?  what the device's
prompt is?  and does clogin work with your cisco/etc devices?

The regex is the same in clogin.  it reduces the prompt match so that -x and
-c can deal with prompts that change, like they do between cli & config modes
on cisco.

I think it could be reduced to:

 regsub -all {^(.{1,11}).*([#>])$} $reprompt {\1([^#>\r\n]+)?[#>]} reprompt

eliminating the stuff for the (enable)-junk in Catalyst-like prompts:
	foo#(enable) 
but hlogin is also used for AGM modules and SMC/Dell.  I no longer have AGMs,
but do not recall them having this type prompt.  Going by stuff others have
posted about SMC/Dell, I don't think it would affect those either.

That said, I do not know why it would fail for you, but work for my ciscos
and HPs.

I copied the .cloginrc and rancid.conf to the new host and wanted to test with a new router.db first, containing only 6 HP Procurve switches (switchname:hp:up). I can login successfully to each switch with "bin/clogin switchname" and I also tried "bin/hlogin -f .cloginrc -c "show version" switchname" which gives me a "no page" output first, but then the version and a completed logout.
